quite gothic like.

It turned out nice! :) What Might help is adjusting contrast levels in an editing program to help equal out the amount of darks and lights. Also try to use different angles when shooting. Instead of just standing and taking the picture, try getting low to the ground, messing with the focal length, or even tilting the camera. Doing things like this capture unique angles that draw people into your picture. ^^

Thanks for the advice! :D
My next assignment I'll try for some more dramatic angles.

Dicks from an ant's perspective.

Dude, don't ask for criticism and then just be a jerk to the people who offer advice.

D: no! I didn't mean it to be bad or anything. Just a joke! I really do appreciate the criticism :3

Oh ok. My apologies! I misunderstood your comment. It's hard to understand what people are trying to convey over the internet. I am truly sorry.
